Rent & eviction protection

Is 607-609 32Nd Ave rent-controlled?

San Francisco's Rent Ordinance caps rent increases and provides eviction protection for most residential units built before 1979 with 2+ units. Here's how this building scores.

Built before 1979
Built 1947

Statewide backstop · AB 1482

California Tenant Protection Act of 2019

Even when a building isn't covered by local rent stabilization, the statewide Tenant Protection Act (AB 1482) may still apply. It caps annual rent increases and requires the landlord to state a legal reason to end most tenancies.

Built 1947
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
Local rent control likely takes priority. This building appears to fall under the local ordinance above, which is stronger than AB 1482. Where a local just-cause ordinance applies, its rules govern instead of the state cap.

AB 1482 does not apply to single-family homes and condos unless owned by a corporation, REIT, or an LLC with a corporate member; to owner-occupied duplexes; or to deed-restricted affordable housing. The Act is in effect until January 1, 2030. Not legal advice — see the California landlord–tenant guide.

Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 607-609 32nd Avenue in San Francisco's Outer Richmond neighborhood is a two-story flats and duplex structure owned by Gene Wah Chun & Linda Wong, built in 1947. The building has experienced several significant maintenance and health issues over its history, most notably a serious fire incident in January 2002 that required comprehensive repairs to the exterior siding, framing, drywall, and insulation, costing $20,000. This was followed by reroofing work in March 2002 costing $4,500. More recent concerns include a mold outbreak in August 2009 that was promptly addressed within a week, and a heating system problem reported in October 2015, though it's unclear from the records whether this issue was fully resolved.

The building has had multiple infrastructure and environmental issues requiring attention, including a sewage backup in August 2016 that was resolved by the PUC Sewer Operations team. While not directly related to the building's habitability, there have been several municipal service requests in recent years regarding public infrastructure near the property, including multiple instances of defaced parking signs in 2020-2021 and a bent stop sign in 2016, all of which were resolved by city services. The property's maintenance record shows attention to major systems like roofing and structural elements, though the earlier health issues suggest historical challenges with moisture control and heating systems.

Risk rating

How 607-609 32Nd Ave's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of SF DBI inspection data — notice of violation filings, complaint history, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that DBI inspectors will issue a Notice of Violation at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.

What the score means for you

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile
42ndpercentile

Out of 1040 buildings in this neighborhood, 603 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
